Bronya covered her face, sighed, and said in her usual nonchalant tone: "As expected of you, you stupid Kiana. Have you forgotten that when we first met in Changkong City, I was actually controlled by you and we even fought each other at that time?" "Oh... yeah, I forgot about that, hahaha!" Kiana smiled foolishly and tilted her head, fully demonstrating the brain capacity problem of her single-celled organism. 'This fool...' 'Is this intentional or is he really stupid?' "Stupid Kiana, is there no hope for you?" At this moment, everyone who originally had different feelings put their worries aside for a while. Seeing that the night was getting late, the few of them agreed to continue hiding from Angie for a while, and then they left one by one, returning to their rooms to rest and digest the information, ending this complicated night. Testimonials
As the title says, the editor contacted me on Monday and said that it was time to put the book on the shelves. The time was set for Friday, which means it will be on the shelves tomorrow. According to the custom, I have to give a thank you note for the book, but I really don't know what to say. So, I will explain what is probably the most concerned issue. Regarding the update frequency, I have a job, so I can only update once on weekdays, and occasionally twice, because my brain can't keep up. Of course, I will update more during holidays, usually twice or more, like this. Well, 100 words are enough. Here, I would like to thank all the friends who have read this far, and please support the following stories. It’s okay for friends who don’t like it, but please don’t leave a message to tell me, I will be upset, really. Finally, I wish you all good health and peace for your family, and I wish you all a happy new year! Chapter 55: Raiden Mei's Courage The next day, Bronya was still in a low mood. Although her expressionless face was no different from the past, the subtle low pressure and her silence than usual still made people feel her discomfort. In this situation, as a good friend living in the same room, Anqi, who "knew nothing", naturally tried her best to offer comfort. Bronya was touched. At the same time, the more moved I was, the more guilty I felt. I felt I had no face to face the "poor and innocent" An Qi. Bronya was absent from class, which was rare. On the one hand, he wanted to avoid Angie's unbearable concern, and on the other hand, he wanted to find out more about Cocolia's movements. However, Bronya did not dare to contact her mother who was "heartbroken" by her last night, for fear of seeing her sad expression. So, she contacted Xing, and despite Xing's sharper and more piercing weirdness than usual, she finally got the information she wanted. At noon, in the office of the principal of St. Freya Academy, Bronya reported the information she had collected. "The good news is that Mother Cocolia has already regarded Mei as a complete Lawrence. She wants to build the East Sea Base, expand the Titan Corps, and develop more powerful weapons. In short, before she is sure that she has mastered the power of a full-fledged Lawrence, Mother Cocolia will not take any action, and will do her utmost to avoid provoking Mei, so as to prevent the Changkong City incident from happening again." "The bad news is that once she is ready, it means we will face a powerful force that can theoretically overwhelm the Herrscher. Bronya doesn't think Saint Freya can resist it, because with my mother's wisdom, how to deal with Saint Freya must have been in her plan." Bronya hugged her Huum pillow and rubbed her brows tiredly. She didn't sleep at all last night. She was thinking about Cocolia all the time. She was tossing and turning, and now she was really tired. At this point, someone asked a crucial question: "How long will it take for Cocolia to be ready?" Bronya immediately replied: "According to my mother's plan, it will take about three to four years." As soon as these words were spoken, the solemn atmosphere immediately dissipated. Raiden Mei: “Huh~~” Ji Zi: “Huh~~”
Theresa: “Huh~~” Walter: “Huh~~” Hearing what Bronya said before, I thought Cocolia would come with a huge army of mechanical armies and warships in a few months! It turns out that there are still three or four years. Now, although there is still pressure, at least there is still time to find a solution, so it is not so scary. "Oh!" Theresa suddenly slammed the table, pointed at Walter and said loudly: "That's not right! How dare you show up in front of the principal? You've been hiding in my school for years, stealing wages. Aren't you afraid that the principal will beat you to death with a Judas?" "Principal, first of all, I have never done anything bad to Saint Freya. Secondly, I am a serious teacher, earning legal remuneration through hard work. Finally, I don't know why, but the salaries of ordinary faculty members like us haven't increased for many years, and sometimes they even deduct a little for no reason. When you add it all up, I don't actually get much salary." Walter adjusted his glasses and spoke with a hint of tiredness, his words filled with the resentment of the lower-class workers who have had their wages squeezed repeatedly. Theresa's inflated aura suddenly disappeared, her bright blue eyes swung left and right, and then she forced herself to straighten her expression and said seriously: "Let's not talk about these little things for now. Anyway, I am very pleased that we can communicate openly now. Although you came here completely uninvited, I am happy to know that you are still safe after the great collapse that year." "Thank you for your concern. By the way, this is a little souvenir. It's a little late, I hope you don't mind." Walter pulled out a comic book with a beautiful cover from somewhere. Theresa grabbed it instantly, raised her hands high, and her little mouth suddenly opened into a small circle in excitement. "This is... This is the special collector's edition of The Adventures of Homo. The author personally drew it and even improved many storyboards. It has a perfect reading experience and is known as a treasure-level collection of books in the Homo series. It is limited to 200 copies worldwide. I didn't even get one back then!" "Hey! I happen to be quite familiar with the author of the Hom series." Walter put his hand to his mouth and coughed dryly as if it were normal. Yes, the author’s real name is Walter Young, how could he not be familiar with him? However, as the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance, a mature man in his sixties or seventies, there is no need to publicize such trivial matters. I always feel that people will look at me with strange eyes. For example, Bronya, whose ears were already erect, kept glancing at Walter. If it weren't for the wrong timing, she would have come up to him and asked for information about the author, right? "Principal, as you all know, I am a Herrscher with a human heart, and I am very good at controlling the power of the Herrscher. Therefore, I would like to stay in the academy for a while, not only to protect Mei, but also to teach her during this time and help her master the power dormant in her body. What do you think?" "Ah, it's okay, it's okay, just stay, I have my own way with Grandpa. Hehe, Homu, hehehe~~" Theresa held up her comic collection, sucked the saliva from the corner of her mouth, and responded nonchalantly, not even thinking about Walter's problem. The people belonging to Saint Freya couldn't help but twitch their lips. Even Bronia, whose heart was shaken by this rare treasure, knew that business was more important. However, Theresa Apokalis... forget it, she would rather not say anything in front of outsiders. In the subtle atmosphere, Raiden Mei stood up with a troubled look on her face and said: "Teacher Yang... No, Lord Walter, may I ask what your plan is for my father?" "Just keep calling me Teacher Yang. I like being a teacher. If the collapse wasn't still threatening our world, maybe teacher would be the most suitable career for me. As for Ryoma, we're still looking for him." Walter said gently.
Mei Raiden frowned in confusion and asked in a low voice: "But, with Anti-Entropy's power, it shouldn't take that long, right? Is Dad's problem serious?" "Mei, you have to understand that Anti-Entropy has the power to override the secular world, so we have to be more cautious when interfering with the affairs of normal people. There are laws in the Far East. Cocolia took the formal legal route to put Ryoma in jail. We can only use legal channels to rescue Ryoma. First, we have to raise enough funds to make up for the losses that Ryoma embezzled without permission, and then apply for parole... In short, it will take some time." Walter patiently explained the principle of anti-entropy, and also hoped to convey to Raiden Mei the idea of using power prudently. But the matter is actually much more complicated than this. First of all, the mistakes made by Thunder Ryoma are in front of all the Executors, and even Walter cannot force these Executors to understand and forgive. More importantly, Thunder Ryoma has a heavy responsibility to conquer the gems. Even if he is released from prison, he still needs to face many problems. Mei Raiden pursed her lips and finally nodded in understanding. Walter smiled gently and said: "Don't worry about Ryoma. We are all working hard, and Cocolia let go a long time ago. It's only a matter of time to save him. The more important thing now is that I hope you can master the power of the Herrscher. Only if you become a Herrscher like me, we will have enough power to convince Cocolia and avoid this terrible conflict." “But can I really do it?” "Mei, humans are both fragile and strong. Especially the desire to protect the people who are important to them is a hundred times stronger than the heart of a Herrscher, just like Joyce back then, and just like me now. So, don't ask if you can do it, but ask if you want to protect the people around you." "Of course I do!!" Raiden Mei said this in a decisive tone. For Kiana, for Angel, Bronya, Teacher Himeko, and for all the people who cared for and helped her, Raiden Mei clenched her fists, then bowed deeply in front of Walter. "Teacher Yang, I will try my best to learn. Please teach me!" Mei Raiden has not yet experienced the pain of losing Kiana, nor has she witnessed the cruel scene of her school life being shattered. However, the protective heart always exists. The appearance of An Qi and the various information she obtained during this period reminded her of her responsibilities as a sinner in Changkong City. At this moment, Mei Raiden was determined to muster up the courage to face the darkness that she feared the most. Chapter 56: Screaming Angie While Saint Freya and Walter were discussing business, Angel and Kiana were having dinner. Needless to say, it was understandable why Angie did not join in the conversation. The reason why Kiana did not join is easy to understand. "Why aren't Himeko, Mei-san, and Bronya here? What were they doing?" "Yeah, where did they go? I don't know." Angel and Kiana looked at each other while eating the lunch boxes prepared by Raiden Mei. They both tilted their heads, equally confused. However, there is no need to explain which one is truly confused and which one is falsely confused. Angel emptied the lunch box quickly. As a Herrscher, she ate no less than Kiana. Then, An Qi put away the lunch box and put on a serious expression.
"Kiana, forget about them for now. Have you found out what the monitor likes?" "Ah? This, is it clear now, or is it still unclear..." Kiana blinked her eyes in an innocent way, then wrinkled her face in distress. An Qi was confused and said: "What's going on?" "I asked her what she likes, and she said she doesn't like anything in particular. I asked her what she likes to do, and she said she doesn't do anything special. I asked her if there is anything she really wants, and she said she doesn't want anything... How can I find out!" Kiana puffed up her cheeks and shook her body angrily. An Qi: “(????)…” Don't panic, stay calm. From the perspective of the plot, Fu Hua is now somewhat aloof. Her polite appearance is just a mask, and her closed heart will not be easily approached. In addition, she is now Otto's spy, so she will naturally pay more attention to the distance between her and the students of St. Freya. All in all, gaining Fu Hua's trust and closeness is more difficult than expected, and An Qi is still patiently working on it. In short, be calm. "Hmph! Just get straight to the point. I'm running out of patience!" Angie slapped the lunch box and puffed up her cheeks unhappily. The other Angies were making progress step by step, so how could she stand still? Kiana chewed the meatball in her mouth, looked at Angel's sudden angry reaction, thought for a moment, took out her last meatball with a fork, and put it into Angel's mouth. "Calm down, ah~~" An Qi spoke subconsciously. Then, the angry squirrel's reaction disappeared instantly, and he squinted his eyes happily. "Good times~~" "Right, right? I also think today's lunch box is very rich. Is it some festival we don't know about?" Kiana chuckled and cleaned up her dishes. …… But this afternoon, they didn't wait for those people to come back for class. The school bell rang, and Kiana sat up straight, her sleepy snot bubbles bursting. She grabbed her school bag and rushed out without saying a word. "Let's go find Mei~~" Then, the backpack seemed to be hooked by a steel pipe, and no matter how hard Kiana stepped, she couldn't move forward. "Ok?"
Qiana turned her head and saw An Qi sitting upright, staring at Fu Hua who was walking out of the classroom. Her schoolbag was grabbed by An Qi with one hand. "Hey!" Kiana used all her strength, her face flushed, to try to pull the schoolbag out, but Anqi's little hand was as motionless as a cast iron statue. Kiana was tired, so she just squatted down and rolled her eyes:
